oil light on boosted 00 gsr
when i start up my car the oil light stays on for a second or two. i just changed the oil and filter and i do it every 2000 to 2500 miles and im using mobile 15w 50. also when i pulled the dipstick out it smelled kinda burnt. any input would be great.

Mine does the same thing but that seems normal to me because both of my GSR's did that on a cold start. It takes a second or two for the oil to reach the oil sending unit. I wouldn't worry about it too much.
If you're driving and the light comes on...that's a whole different story. It'll come on when your oil level/pressure is very low and most times its already too late by the time you pull over.
